Book Description

Java 9 Data Structures and Algorithms covers classical, functional, and reactive data structures, giving you the ability to understand computational complexity, solve problems, and write efficient code. This book is based on the Zero Bug Bounce milestone of Java 9.

We start off with the basics of algorithms and data structures, helping you understand the fundamentals and measure complexity. From here, we introduce you to concepts such as arrays, linked lists, as well as abstract data types such as stacks and queues. Next, we\'ll take you through the basics of functional programming while making sure you get used to thinking recursively.

We provide plenty of examples along the way to help you understand each concept. You will get the also get a clear picture of reactive programming, binary searches, sorting, search trees, undirected graphs, and a whole lot more!
What you will learn

Understand the fundamentals of algorithms, data structures, and measurement of complexity
Find out what general purpose data structures are, including arrays, linked lists, double ended linked lists, and circular lists
Get a grasp on the basics of abstract data types—stack, queue, and double ended queue
See how to use recursive functions and immutability while understanding and in terms of recursion
Handle reactive programming and its related data structures
Use binary search, sorting, and efficient sorting—quicksort and merge sort
Work with the important concept of trees and list all nodes of the tree, traversal of tree, search trees, and balanced search trees
Apply advanced general purpose data structures, priority queue-based sorting, and random access immutable linked lists
Gain a better understanding of the concept of graphs, directed and undirected graphs, undirected trees, and much more
